Induction onto the Hate Hoax List requires only high likelihood, not the concrete evidence that would be needed in a court of law. For example, U.C. Berkeley student Ismael Chamu claimed to be a victim of a hate incident last November:

Groceries in hand, campus junior Ismael Chamu was walking home from the 99 Cents Only Store when a red Ford pickup truck driven by two white men slowed beside him — “Son-of-a-bitch wetback,” one of the men yelled before driving away.

Experiencing such an incident in homogenously far left Berkeley would be the equivalent of encountering a squirrel standing atop a parking meter, reciting the Gettysburg Address. Hate flows from left to right in Berkeley, as Chamu himself reminded us last week by getting busted for a hate crime:

Slashed tires and graffiti still remain in a South Berkeley neighborhood near UC Berkeley campus more than two weeks after someone went on a spray-painting spree. According to police, nearly 35 hate-related incidents were reported the night of June 27 into the morning of the 28.

Investigators say the graffiti and verbiage used classify the case as a hate crime.

Chamu has been taken into custody. It isn’t his first confrontation with the law:

Chamu was first arrested last month, in the early morning hours when the vandalism was discovered. Police said he was in possession of an illegal ‘spring-loaded” knife. Chamu wasn’t charged. According to a Berkeley blog, he wrote online the night he was released from custody, that he felt officers were racially profiling him.

A put-upon victim of racial profiling. Social justice warriors never tire of being tediously predictable.

Chamu has used social media to make a pageant of his love for Antifa and his hatred for whites, capitalism, “Individualist propaganda,” and even liberals, presumably for being insufficiently radical. Given his mindset, it seems likely that he deserves a spot on the Hate Hoax List for the story he told last November.
